How do I make and organizer for my garage out of used wooden crates?
+2
Our local asian mart gets food in them and gives
them away for free so they don”t have to pay to haul them away but they are stained and not very nice looking. I have 12-15 to use but how to attach to one another? And what should I paint them with? Thank you! Kathy Sprinkle :^ )

Hi Kathy, if the crates are wood, you can paint them with just about any paint you can access. Bare wood will accept paint - latex or non - very well. You could do them all the same colour or even a bunch of different colours. Have fun!
How big are the crates? What in the garage do you want to store in them?
Can you fasten them to the wall like shelving?
I would spray paint them individually first and then stack them together by screwing them and then screw that to the wall for added strength.
